Leaping Lizard 2004 Zinfandel (Sonoma County)
- Best Buy
- $12
What a great success. It brings to mind that old saying, less is more. This a wonderfully balanced wine with tons of Zinny flavor. Wild black, blue and red berries, sweet cocoa, root beer and all kinds of dusty Asian spices spread over the palate, leading to a dry, satisfying aftertaste. Buy this one by the case.

Leaping Lizard 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- Best Buy
- $15
A very nice Cabernet at a great price for the quality. It’s dry and smooth, with rich Napa tannins framing classic Cab flavors of blackberries, black currants, minerals and cedar. Tastes like it costs three times as much.

Leaping Lizard 2008 Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- Best Buy
- $13
Easily earns its high score for the dryness, mouthwatering acidity and classic Sauvignon Blanc flavors. Waves of Meyer lemons, ripe limes, sweet hay, green apples, vanilla, honeysuckle and spices wash over the palate, ending in a firm minerality.

Good value in an everyday Merlot. Smooth and plush in texture, the ripe flavors include cherries, blackberries, mocha, dried herbs and peppery spices, with a touch of toasty oak.

Leaping Lizard 2005 Merlot (Napa Valley)
- $12
A solid Merlot that shows many of the same features as much more expensive bottlings. It’s smooth and softly tannic and forward in blackberry, cherry and spice flavors. Loses some points for a certain roughness to the tannins.

Leaping Lizard 2003 Pinot Noir (Carneros)
- Best Buy
- $10
So what do you get for ten bucks? A pretty nice Pinot. It’s silky and dry, with rich red cherry, raspberry, vanilla, cinnamon and toast flavors, and a long, spicy finish.

One of the better values out there right now, this Chard features flavors of juicy yellow peach, green apple and pineapple, with a touch of spicy, vanilla-tinged oak, housed in a soft, creamy texture.
